November Orionid meteor shower 2021
Visible In India? :
The November Orionid meteor shower will be active from 13 November to 6 December, producing its peak rate of meteors around 28 November.
Over this period, there will be a chance of seeing November Orionid meteors whenever the shower’s radiant point – in the constellation Orion – is above the horizon, with the number of visible meteors increasing the higher the radiant point is in the sky.
At its peak, the shower is expected to produce a nominal rate of around 3 meteors per hour (ZHR).
The shower is expected to reach peak activity at around 14:00 IST on 28 November 2021, and so the best displays might be seen before dawn on 28 November and after the radiant rises on 28 November.
